Palladium Punta Cana Beach Party?

[alisonu22]

Can anyone tell me what is included in the cost of $9.00 per person for the Grand Palladium Beach Party. The WC emailed me saying that it included set up but not open bar, but the website says "beach party with open bar $9pp". If anyone can clarify that would be so great. Also, if someone can help me with more info on the cocktail hour also that would be awesome. Thanks for all of your guy's help.

This is the info I got from my wedding planner:

 

Reception on the beach (after dinner):

 

International Open Bar = $9US per person for 3 hours

 

DJ = $200US for 3 hours

 

LIVE BAND = $600US for 3 hour

I paid the $9 per person and the $200 for DJ and I saw another beach party as well.

 

due to weather we had to move our party from the beach, to under a thatched roof area (same area I had dinner), which worked out extremely well.

 

You get some decorations, varying depending on what you supply them with. They set up some beachy-themed cut outs of a sun, some surfboards etc for us on the beach. The bar comes with a waitress as well as the bar tender and you get the same stuff the bars usually have, ie Pina Colada, Rum Punch etc.

 

The DJ has a sound system and will have his own music (RandB, Carribean) I strongly suggest bringing any first dance music on CD or ipod, don't put it on a USB drive since it is hard for him to navigate that. If you are bringing Rock and Roll he may struggle with it a bit since he is not used to it. It was amusing watching my New Husband have a bit of culture clash with the DJ regarding the music.

 

There is also a security guard who prevents crashers

 

I think 9$ per person is a steal of a deal for what you get, $200 for the DJ is also recamennded so you don't need to worry about your ipod speakers being loud enough, or give someone the responsibility of controlling the music

Are you getting married at the Grand Palladium Punta Cana? The one that is with 3 other resorts? I think they're called Royal Suites, Palace and Bavaro?

Would you suggest a beach party as a rehearsal party?

FYI: The price of the beach party went up to 12$/person and 250$ for the DJ

I know this thread is old but I was hoping someone could help me out with the palladium beach party. Do they supply a dance floor or do you dance in the sand. Thanks for any replies!!
